    Cor Pulmonale is a condition that causes heart failure due to lung disorders or low blood oxygen levels, which increases pulmonary blood pressure and makes it difficult for the right ventricle to pump blood into the pulmonary circulation. It can be caused by damage to lung soft tissue from COPD, damage to pulmonary vessels from blood clots, or abnormalities of the spine or ribcage. Symptoms include severe shortness of breath, distended jugular veins, fatigue, fainting, liver enlargement, and fluid congestion edema.
